The clouds were deep, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the eaves. Most of the people on the avenue were fanning themselves leisurely, or sitting under the pergola drinking herbal tea, chatting, and occasionally looking at the children playing not far away.
Suddenly, a gust of horses galloped past, interrupting the leisurely mood.
"Gee!" A man was seen passing by quickly and people on the street looked over.
"What's going on here?"
A woman hugged the child who was almost kicked by the horse and cursed: "Who knows, he is in a hurry to be reincarnated."
"........."
These few words were not heard by the people on the horse. Even if they heard it, he could not do anything about it now.
His goal now was to rush to the master's house as soon as possible to report the news.
Shen House
"Bang--" Shen Ling looked at the teacup that broke into pieces beside him, his eyelids twitching violently involuntarily.
"Master, spare my life."
The maid who served the tea was horrified and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy.
Madam Shen started scolding the maid on the ground, but when she saw Shen Ling looked unhappy, she stopped and told her to get out.
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Ling frowned when he saw her worried expression. He couldn't tell what was wrong, but he just felt very panicked.
"Why hasn't Zi'an come back yet?"
Madam Shen was stunned, and said with a bit of pride: "Zi'an is still in the palace. The emperor kept him today. It seems that he values our Zi'an very much."
When she said this, the excitement and joy in her tone and eyes were quite obvious, but this was also normal, even if Shen Zian was not very close to her.
But she is her biological mother. As long as Shen Zian gets the emperor's favor, she can walk with her head held high in the mansion, and even Shen Ling doesn't dare to say anything more to her.
Shen Ling did not feel happy at all after hearing this, but became even more panicked.
"you……"
"Master, something bad has happened!" When Shen Ling was about to teach Madam Shen a lesson, he was interrupted by a shrill cry coming from far away.
Shen Ling's eyes darkened and his expression became even darker and more terrifying.
He wanted to get angry, but when he saw the servant lying on the ground, he was visibly stunned.
"Why are you alone? Where is your master?"
The servant was Shen Zian's personal servant.
Shen Ling's anxiety became even more urgent at this moment. He frowned and asked loudly: "But what happened to Zi'an on the way back?"
The servant shook his head violently, his face wrinkled with tears.
"Master, the young master is in prison!"
"What!" Before Shen Ling could react, Mrs. Shen beside him yelled and fainted from anger.
The maid beside her hurried over to support Mrs. Shen.
Shen Ling's heart felt as if he had fallen into an abyss, yet he forced himself to calm down. His face was terribly pale at this moment.
"When did it happen? What happened?"
The servant shook his head, looked up at Shen Ling and said, "I don't know either. I followed the others and waited outside the palace gate, waiting for the young master and the princes to come out, but in the end I only saw the young master being taken away."
"I also recognized who he was. In the end, it was the Third Prince who told me that the young master had offended the Emperor. The Third Prince ordered me to come back as fast as I could to tell you."
"I want you..." The servant was trembling and sweat was coming out of his forehead.
Shen Ling's face had turned terribly dark. He gritted his teeth and asked, "What do you want me to do?"
The servant kowtowed several times, then lay on the ground and said, not daring to look up: "You need to take care of yourself and be prepared."
Shen Ling's breathing choked, and he couldn't catch his breath. He felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and then he fell straight down.
"master!"
Mrs. Shen, who had just woken up, saw Shen Ling's fallen body and immediately shouted in a shrill voice: "Someone come, Master!"
Suddenly the Shen residence was in chaos.
The news of Shen Zian being imprisoned soon reached Shen Lanyue's ears. It was not news she received specifically, but not long after the servant went back, eunuchs came to Shen's Mansion with an oral order and surrounded the mansion.
Shen Lanyue put her hand that was pricked by the needle into her mouth, slowly put down the clothes in her hand, and frowned slightly.
It seems that Shen Zian is destined to encounter this disaster.
I just don’t know if it was the same thing as in the previous life, what happened in the palace. Shen Lanyue’s eyes were as deep as ink, and with her eyelids lowered, I couldn’t see the emotions in them.
We can only wait until Meng Changce comes back to find out what exactly happened.
The Shen family had an uneasy night.
However, Shen Lanyue smiled again. If it was the same as in her previous life, she could help Shen Zian.
Of course, she also had a condition: she wanted to take her mother's spirit tablet away.
Thinking of this, Shen Lanyue raised her eyes slightly. Compared with the calm expression on her face, it seemed as if an extreme storm was brewing in her eyes.
"You're not anxious at all."
Shen Lanyue turned around and looked at Meng Changce, who was leaning on the porch in a casual posture, with his eyebrows slightly raised and a smile on the corner of his mouth, staring at her.
She pursed her lips and said indifferently, "I can't make the decision about the Shen family's affairs. Of course, if this matter has already affected me, then I may not be able to embroider clothes for you, my Lord."
Meng Changce admired her leisurely and chuckled softly.
It's deep yet has a bewitching magnetism that sounds really nice.
He walked to Shen Lanyue, picked up her clothes and put them aside, then held her in his arms and rocked her.
Seeing her raised eyebrows, not showing any fear at all, he smiled and bit the tip of her nose lightly.
He didn't even dare to look at it and walked out with a red face.
Shen Lanyue caught a glimpse of Fanfan running away in panic, her cheeks turned red, and she reached out to push his chest which was leaning towards her.
"What does this mean, sir?"
The last word was pronounced very lightly.
Meng Changce listened to her sarcastic tone, the curve of his mouth deepened, his forehead rested against hers, and he stared into her eyes gently.
He placed a gentle and precious kiss on her forehead and stepped back.
"Of course, it doesn't involve the rest of the Shen family now, but it will be different tomorrow."
Shen Lanyue was stunned, her eyes flashing.
"What happened?"
Meng Changce naturally embraced the person in his arms, then half leaned against him and said nonchalantly: "Shen Zian is investigating the mother's family of the current fifth prince and the recently favored Concubine Ying."
Shen Lanyue's eyebrows jumped.
Sure enough, it happened, just like in the previous life.
Shen Lanyue sighed in her heart and closed her eyes slightly.
So will Li Wenxuan be able to protect the Shen family this time?
No, Shen Wanqing has already married him, he won't lose any benefits.
Meng Changce stroked her belly with one hand and said, "To be more precise, he is investigating all the powerful people under the imperial power, including our emperor."
